There was an article in the NZ Herlad this morning about how popular internet shopping is becoming. Customers tend to shop around before they visit the shops, and often return empty handed because they know they can get what they want online.
One of the biggest discentives, particularly with the older generation, is giving your credit card number over the interest. How many hackers will be able to access your card?
Safety precautions to prevent this are now pretty solid. For instance, at Kiwigiftsonline, we cannot ever get access to a customer's credit card number. This part is all done by another specialist company linked to the Bank. So in fact this is safer than handing over your credit card in a shop. One word of warning however - make sure that when you type in your credit card online, the website address has changed from 'http' to 'https'. The 's' shows the site is safe, and the address normally changes when you go the checkout.
Happy online shopping
